Having now perused the lyrics for the new album--something obviously best fitted to, uh, music, but I'm taking what I can at this point--I have to say that Ray penned some awfully lovely lyrics for "Steady State." Such a sweet sentiment. Now to just hear, y'know, the song.

I know you never look on here, Raymond, but in the off chance that you get bored hanging out in the Lassitudinous Lead Guitarist in World-Famous Rock Unit Super Secret Message Board and see this, I'd be remiss not to doff my hat. Might be my favorite lyric of yours since "Happiness" (whose chorus still guts me).
